Ha.. I know from past experience that I can't not use a weekend toy during the week..

Moved it on after 8 years - I was starting to leak coolant from a cylinder head. My mechanic said it was just a quick whip the engine out and retorque one of the heads job...

Traded it in for a e93 320i. But moved that on after a year - gearbox leak, timing chain, headlight, 7 coil packs and injectors and it was burning a litre of oil every 2k miles. Even under BMW approved warranty it was more hassle that it was worth.

Have a E70 now in Monaco blue that is a glorious comfy sofa on wheels (albeit even higher maintenance)....

Must start a thread on my car history...
